## .loadMessages( json )
Load messages data.
The first level of keys must be locales. For example:
```
{
en: {
hello: "Hello"
},
pt: {
hello: "Olá"
}
}
```
ICU MessageFormat pattern is supported: variable replacement, gender and plural inflections. For more information see [`.messageFormatter( path ) ➡ function([ variables ])`](./message-formatter.md).
The provided messages are stored along side other cldr data, under the "globalize-messages" key. This allows Globalize to reuse the traversal methods provided by cldrjs. You can inspect this data using `cldrjs.get("globalize-messages")`.
### Parameters
#### json
JSON object of messages data. Keys can use any character, except `/`, `{` and `}`. Values (i.e., the message content itself) can contain any character.
### Example
```javascript
Globalize.loadMessages({
pt: {
greetings: {
hello: "Olá",
bye: "Tchau"
}
}
});
Globalize( "pt" ).formatMessage( "greetings/hello" );
// > Olá
```
#### Multiline strings
Use Arrays as a convenience for multiline strings. The lines will be joined by a space.
```javascript
Globalize.loadMessages({
en: {
longText: [
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Eligendi non",
"quis exercitationem culpa nesciunt nihil aut nostrum explicabo",
"reprehenderit optio amet ab temporibus asperiores quasi cupiditate.",
"Voluptatum ducimus voluptates voluptas?"
]
}
});
Globalize( "en" ).formatMessage( "longText" );
// > "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit. Eligendi non quis exercitationem culpa nesciunt nihil aut nostrum explicabo reprehenderit optio amet ab temporibus asperiores quasi cupiditate. Voluptatum ducimus voluptates voluptas?"
```
#### Messages inheritance
It's possible to inherit messages, for example:
```javascript
Globalize.loadMessages({
root: {
amen: "Amen"
},
de: {},
en: {},
"en-GB": {},
fr: {},
pt: {
amen: "Amém"
},
"pt-PT": {}
});
Globalize( "de" ).formatMessage( "amen" );
// > "Amen"
Globalize( "en" ).formatMessage( "amen" );
// > "Amen"
Globalize( "en-GB" ).formatMessage( "amen" );
// > "Amen"
Globalize( "fr" ).formatMessage( "amen" );
// > "Amen"
Globalize( "pt-PT" ).formatMessage( "amen" );
// > "Amém"
```
Note that `de`, `en`, `en-GB`, `fr`, and `pt-PT` are empty. `.formatMessage()` inherits `pt-PT` messages from `pt` (`pt-PT``pt`), and it inherits the other messages from root, eg. `en-GB``en-001``en``root`. Yes, `root` is the last bundle of the parent lookup.
Attention: On browsers, message inheritance only works if the optional dependency `cldr/unresolved` is loaded.
```html
<script src="cldr/unresolved.js"></script>
```
